My magic panel is too numerical.

Christina sighed helplessly.

She knew that a pointless search would not find the white "demon" in a short time.

She needed a breakthrough, a clue.

She didn't believe that the demon was truly invincible, as the rumors suggested.

The demon must have collected so many "spirits" through some medium. Once we find that medium, we can expose the demon...

"Is there one more thing?"

…………

Pharos didn't speak or go inside; he just stared blankly at the doorway.

"What's wrong, Professor Faros?" Daisy asked, puzzled, seeing the detective refusing to come in.

Pharos remained motionless, his eyes fixed on Daisy's sister and the white, faceless vengeful spirit hovering above the woman's head.

This is the vengeful spirit of the girl whose face was eaten by the white giant... Why is she here? Pharos wondered.

His intuition, guided by his "spirit," told him that things were not so simple.

There is only one possibility for the existence of a faceless vengeful spirit: that it worked for the church in its previous life.

And Daisy's older sister, Pharos felt a strong sense of déjà vu. Had he seen her somewhere before?

School? No… library? Detective agency?

No! None of those!

Pharos searched through his memories one by one. He had only been in this world for two weeks. Where exactly had he seen this woman?

I can't remember...

Farros felt a chill run down his spine.

The more he couldn't remember, the more anxious his "spirit" became.

"Mr. Pharos?" Daisy called out again.

"Uh... okay."

Upon entering the living room, Pharos smelled the aroma of stewed potatoes and beef. Potatoes were a staple food for the residents of the East District, while beef was relatively scarce, and they could only eat it about twice a week.

In comparison, the Hastings family had meat almost every day, which might explain why Pharos was tall and Eileen was beautiful.

"Wow, are we having beef and potatoes today? It smells so good!" Daisy exclaimed excitedly.

The apartment is about 50 square meters, which is considered a spacious home in Bedell Green.

It often makes a piercing "squeak" sound when you step on it.

Recalling his past life's home visits, Pharos conducted the home visit process in a very professional manner.

Daisy's older sister is named Lynn. She has blonde hair and blue eyes, is not tall, but has nice skin.

My second sister is still at work. I heard she'll be back before dinner, and she's probably almost home now.

Pharos kept his hands tightly clenched, not wanting to appear too terrified.

The white vengeful spirit lingered above Lynn's head, as if it were determined to kill her.

In Pharos's eyes, the white vengeful spirits bared their fangs and roared angrily, often emitting piercing sounds.

What kind of terrible thing has this happened...?

The commotion even made Miss Daisy's hands and feet go cold, so she went back inside to get a coat.

Miss Lynn is really lucky. She's been with the vengeful spirit for so long, and even his sister couldn't take it anymore, but she's still perfectly fine.

Faros thought to himself, then asked curiously, "Miss Lynn, what does she do for a living?"

"Oh, I work part-time as a nun at church."

"The church?" Pharos raised an eyebrow, his face blankening. "Does the family have any other sources of income?"

"I also have a younger sister who is a student at the University of Castile. She earns a decent income from part-time jobs."

A top student at a magic university?

Why does this sound so familiar?

Could it be Miss Iris...? That's quite a coincidence. If I were to run into her again, wouldn't my identity as a teacher at the Holy Temple Academy be exposed?

Pharos's heart tightened, and he immediately began preparing an excuse to leave: "It's getting late. I think this home visit will help Miss Daisy better complete her studies. Also, Miss Daisy is at a stage of growth, so if conditions permit, she can eat more eggs and beef..."

"Mr. Pharos, dinner is ready. Won't you stay and have some with us?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I have an appointment tonight."

Pharos refused to have dinner with them by citing a date, a very effective excuse; almost no one would try to stop him once they heard it was a date.

"You are a very promising young teacher. Thank you for taking care of Daisy." Miss Lynn looked disappointed.

"It's what I should do; it's my job," Pharos said to Daisy in a teacher's tone. "Daisy, I have something to tell you."

"OK."

The two left the apartment building and returned to the greasy stairwell.

"Detective, what's the situation?" Daisy asked anxiously.

"It's just an ordinary vengeful spirit. I'm going to exorcise it now."

"Can I...watch this?"

"I'm sorry, Miss Daisy, but I need you to come inside and check on the vengeful spirit. If you don't sense anything unusual from before, knock twice on the door. If you still sense it, knock three times." Pharos politely declined.

"Oh... okay."

After watching Miss Daisy close the door, Pharos looked at Miss Raven.

Let's begin!

Miss Crow spread her wings and perched on Pharos's arm.

A panel pops up.

[Use "Soul Eater"?]

Pharos looked at the vengeful spirits inside the house and reached out as if to grab them.

"Soul Devourer!"

[Activate "Soul Devouring"]

In an instant, Miss Crow's jet-black feathers emitted a strong purple light, and a vortex formed in the corridor.

"I don't know why you are so angry, but... please rest in peace!" Pharos murmured to the vengeful spirit.

A panel pops up.

[Spirit -1, Magic +1]

[Note: Spell 3 panel effect: The range and power of your used skills and spells +7.5%.]

[Intelligence: Language 2; Knowledge 2; Skills 3]

Another spell?

Pharos paused for a moment, thinking that since he had six custom attribute points, if he were to be hit by a spell again, wouldn't he be able to enter a lottery?

He couldn't help but get excited at the prospect of gaining new abilities.

The next second, my thoughts froze, and black-and-white slides flooded my mind...

"Sizzle sizzle"

"..."

……

"Camilla, are we really going to be part-time nuns at church?"

"Camilla, I've found the church quite interesting; you can hear a lot of gossip about Dawntown in the confessional!"

"Camilla, what's that, a white...person?"

"Camilla...save me...Camilla...run..."

"Aaaaaaahhhhh..."

……

"No! You... are not me! If you... are me... then who am I?"

Fear...helplessness...sadness...anger!

The vengeful spirit's emotions instantly filled Pharos's mind...

It wasn't until he saw the vengeful spirit's memories that he remembered that he had indeed met Miss Lynn.

In that sewer.

In the memory of that dead girl, she saw... Camilla and her best friend who was with her.

They worked part-time at the church together, walked home together, and died together in the dark sewers.

This...this is Miss Lynn's vengeful spirit...this is actually Miss Lynn's vengeful spirit!

But... if this is Miss Lynn... then who is inside the house?

No wonder that vengeful spirit was so tormented and wanted to attack Miss Lynn...

No wonder, that day in the sewers, there was only Camilla as a vengeful spirit...

Pharos trembled all over, veins bulged on his forehead, his eyes widened in anger, and he unconsciously gripped the umbrella handle tightly.

Inside the house is... a white giant!
